Handmade Holiday 2010

I have decided to join in with the Plain and Joyful Living's 'Handmade Holiday 2010'. I think this is such a wonderful idea, what is more lovely than to receive a gift that has been handmade with love especially for you!? Each year I usually make some of my gifts however in keeping with Handmade Holiday 2010, this year will be entirely handmade :)

Some of the things that I have decided to make include....

- some wooden play pegs (with the help of my dad) for my step-daughters

- Some more knitted goodies for my darling B......In particular this knitted bunny from the book Knitted Animals ....I hope mine will at least resemble this sweet little bunny :)

- Inspired by some recent crafts by The Magic Onions and Twig and Toadstool, I am going to attempt some little beeswax candles made in recycled glass jars and little tea cups. Some with leaves and flowers stuck on...

I feel like I am taking a lot on, especially as there is not that much time until Christmas and we are heading off on an overseas adventure for 4 weeks! SO I better get started and will keep you updated on my progress..
